New Restoration Project, '72 Overlander

Hello everyone,

My wife, our baby, and myelf just started a full restoration on a '72 Overlander we recently purchased. As you'll see from the photos, it needs some serious TLC. We've had it over at Inland RV where we had new Axles installed and a new A/C unit. By the way, Greg is awesome! They did a full inspection for us and found that it was in really good condition considering its age and the fact that it had been sitting in the desert for the past 10 years. We started gutting her out this weekend and plan to replace all the old Walnut laminate cabinets with warm maple and a bit of cherry. Of course, we'll paint the walls, the bathroom (ugly!), and finally finish the flooring with either a cork floor, or maybe something modern like iFLOOR.

The first thing we took out was the couch. We're planning on building a wrap around dinnete that will make about a queen size bed for us.

Here are a couple photos to show how nasty this thing is, or was. The outside is pretty good, with a few dents. If you have any suggestions, or insight for us, please pass it on! We'll keep everyone updated with pictures.

Regards,
Ron, Heidi & Dutch
Newport Beach, CA.
